QUICKSTART GUIDE
INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW
WELCOME
The KEY OUTCOME of this QuickStart Guide is to ensure that each student knows where to begin, what to study, and where to access learning resources and support.
We aim to take you from knowing little or nothing about trading the financial markets to becoming a profitable trader by:
- Making informed decisions on the best-suited instruments for you to trade.
- Understanding the quantities or volumes you want to trade based on your capital.
- Placing trades with thorough technical and fundamental analysis.
This clear pathway will help you develop your skills for successful trading.
